Fellowships Search
Use the filter(s) below to narrow your search and find fellowships relevant to you. Define your field of study and interests, but also consider your options broadly. If your search yields too few results, you will want to expand your search parameters.
Pay attention to opportunities that align well with your field of study and interests, even if you have missed a deadline or are not yet ready to apply. Consider scholarships for both the short term and the long term.
Searching and finding fellowship opportunities takes work, but our office is happy to help you plan and stay on track with your fellowship applications! Once you have an opportunity in mind, please schedule an appointment so that we can discuss your plans. Recent alumni are encouraged to contact us at urfm@psu.edu.
